    So it wasn't the Sano K on three pitches with no outs, it was the guy who put the ball in play, fairly sharply. Gotcha.

    There's a whole thread on this. Like most players, he hits better at home. Big deal. The road numbers are still quite good... .817 OPS good.

    and shredded carrots.

    And the vast majority don't turn out to be viable major league players. So in the end, for most, their only real value is to provide subject matter for the minor league forum on TD.

    I would say standing pat is a big upright middle finger to fans, a statement to current players that they're not good enough to win, and a sign to future free agents that the Twins are still not a team to seriously consider if there is any way to avoid it.

    I'd rather see the Twins actually try to think big, and fail, than think small and succeed. Thinking small is how you have Mauer and Johan in their prime but get nowhere because you're running Jason what's his name out at DH. This was an opportunity missed. This kind of opportunity doesn't come around that often.

    Neither of the pitchers Col received is any kind of mega prospect, either. Have to believe the inclusion of Reyes means the Twins could have gotten Tulowitski for a reasonable return by taking on more salary. I expected to be disappointed, and in that regard anyway, I'm not disappointed.

    Plouffe made it all the way through the minor leagues as a SS. It's not a big surprise, IMO, to see him become a good defensive third baseman. Maintaining a decent stick was always the bigger question, and he seems to have plateaued at a very respectable level. A good, every day MLB player, one that I would take offers on this winter because of Sano.

    I'm ok with the pricing structure...I'd hate to see them at a price point I can't afford.

    winnah!

    I prefer the 99 cents, thanks.

    C'mon Fien...baseruns has us down 3-2.

    You're assuming a lot here, Dave. They'd have to avoid any lengthy DL stints.
  14. USAFChief
    winner.

    Santana's gotcher back on this.
  16. USAFChief
    ?? Whatever for?

    ...feels like a long lost friend.

    So Mrs Chief and I were cleaning out the bedroom last night, and I found a box under some clothes in the back of the closet. Inside were a couple eggs and over $300 in cash. "Sweet," I thought. I asked Mrs Chief what the deal was, and she looked at me sadly and said "Every time I've cheated on you through the years, I've put an egg in the box." I was taken aback, of course, but tried to put on a brave and loving front. "That's all right, honey. Twice in 34 years isn't so bad." "Welllllll," she said, "I've been selling them over the years at .99 cents a dozen."

    Suggestion: set down both beers before you put your fingers to your eyes.
  20. USAFChief
    Yeah...but ultimately, that's a bad thing.
  21. USAFChief
    Duensing was warmed and ready.
  22. USAFChief
    Given the options, I can't disagree.
  23. USAFChief
    While I certainly appreciate the sentiment, I question your source.
  24. USAFChief
    You don't have a yard.
